* Support for our dual ELF/a.out building ability
* Our custom ASM_* definitions
* Our custom debugger and profiling related definitions
* Our custom STARTFILE/ENDFILE specs
* The stock EGCS 1.1.2 freebsd-elf.h file depended on
egcs-1.1.2/gcc/config/linux.h, which included "svr4.h". We will
include "svr4.h" via our "tm.h" definition. So add the few bits
from "linux.h" we actually needed.
* Using our current crtbegin.o/crtend.o we cannot support the DWARF2
unwinding mechanisms. In the future we will switch to the
non-sjlj-exceptions type exception machanism. However the `make world'
bootstrap problems with the EGCS crtstuff.c must be overcome first.
* Our a.out gas doesn't "know" to use NOP's for aligns while in the text
section. Thus the a.out alignment generation needed tweaking from
what we did with GCC 2.7.2. [from BDE]
* The definition of SUPPORTS_ONE_ONLY prevents the compiler from trying
to use "linkonce" sections for a.out. The definition of
NO_DBX_FUNCTION_END we had causes it to avoid .stabs symbols that the
assembler cannot handle for a.out. [from JDP]
* The previous "EXCEPTION_SECTION_FUNCTION" is the wrong name for EGCS.
It also needed tweaking for EGCS. [from JDP]
Also bump __FreeBSD_cc_version to 400002 in case we need to know we are
using EGCS at some point.
This directory contains the egcs version 1.1.2 release of the GNU C
compiler. It includes all of the support for compiling C++ and
Objective C, including a run-time library for Objective C.
The GNU C compiler is free software. See the file COPYING for copying
permission.
See the file gcc.texi (together with other files that it includes) for
installation and porting information. The file INSTALL contains a
copy of the installation information, as plain ASCII.
Installing this package will create various files in subdirectories of
/usr/local/lib, which are passes used by the compiler and a library
named libgcc.a. It will also create /usr/local/bin/gcc, which is
the user-level command to do a compilation.
See the Bugs chapter of the GCC Manual for how to report bugs
usefully. An online readable version of the manual is in the files
gcc.info*.
The files pself.c and pself1.c are not part of GCC.
They are programs that print themselves on standard output.
They were written by Dario Dariol and Giovanni Cozzi, and are
included for your hacking pleasure. Likewise pself2.c
(Who is the author of that?) and pself3.c (by Vlad Taeerov and Rashit
Fakhreyev).
